I hardly ever see non-Korean people at Korean restaurants, so I'm just curious.

I absolutely love it!
Been to Seoul & tried my first bulgogi along with many other dishes there. Been hooked ever since.
I love that pancake-like thing with peanut butter & honey inside. It's not really a pancake but I love the taste. Would usually drop into my favourite Korean bakery shop whenever I'm in K-Town. If not, I'd go for those walnut shape sweets. Love kimchi chigae (spelt wrong probably), kamjatang to death. It's the best having them in the winter or whenever I'm cold. But my absolute favourite would have to be dak galbi. It's fun with a group of friends. And oh yeah, kim is tasty too.
But all in all, I think Korean food is an acquired taste as is with other Asian food, I think. It can either be a hit or a miss for some. And if some aren't into the heat or the spice of Korean food, then, it would be a turn off. But growing up, I'm used to spicey food, so Korean food is up there on my favourite food list.

How is Korean food unique or different from other Asian food like Chinese or Japanese?
I think most people do not have enough information as there is very little hype about Korean food - so you need to educate people and market it to people, and once the awareness is there, non-Koreans would also start eating at Korean restaurants.
One other thing I noticed about Korean restauants is that they usually have the Asian script instead of English, which actually makes it exclusive and an ethnic-community only choice - rather than a cosmopolitan/open choice.

Yes. Here in Sacramento CA there are many Korean restaurants in the area. I'm lucky as I have some Korean friends. Korean food is spicy and I love it. Kimchi! Best I ever had was in Seoul about 10 years ago.

Koean. :) My chum's heath-nut mum got here across some rce candy from Korea at her all-organic and organic food market and that they gave me slightly or 2. It genuinely tastes particularly sturdy.... like, a nonsweet and extra crunchy rice-krispy cope with? It replace into superb of them, and Korea is closer to China than Thailand is to China? and that i like chinese language nutrition. subsequently, geographical, Korean is extra desirable. Plus, I did a checklist on North Korea. :D

Kim chee, and the people who eat it, stinks. I had 10 Korean students in a very small room, and after 1 hour I had to send them out of the room and spray it. UGHHHHHH!

My girlfriend loves the stuff. Her favorite dish is yukkejang and kalbi. I've gotten pretty sick of eating it with her actually, I usually just snack on the banchan.

It's not as well known as other "Asian foods" but more people are getting to like it, especially in big cities...
And, of course, I love it!!
